The hero's tale


There’s a little bit of truth in everything, but deep down inside of me in a very tiny place, is the absolute truth of me!

It is my essence and it is so small and so compact because I have been squishing it down since I can ever remember! 

Why do I do that?  Well, you see that part of me is so vulnerable and so honest and so open that it is sensitive beyond anything you can imagine!  It isn’t fragile.  Not at all.  It can’t change, because it is who I am.   But it can feel more acutely than other part of me so I have to keep it safe.

A lot of people have had tiny peeks, one some glancing looks, but only one has ever held it between his fingers and his heart and explored every nook and cranny.  No one else could possibly do that because you have to be an old old soul in a child’s mind in order to even find my key.

I think we all have a place like that inside of us and the search for the key is really the hero’s tale.
